CloudODM

cloudodm-64x64

A command line tool to process aerial imagery in the cloud via NodeODM's API.

image

Getting Started

  1. Download the application for Windows, Mac or Linux.
  2. Extract the application in a folder of your choice (for example, c:\odm).
  3. Open a command prompt and navigate to the folder (open the "Command Prompt" application, then cd \odm).
  4. Run odm c:\path\to\images --dsm.

This command will process all the images in the directory c:\path\to\images and save the results (including an orthophoto, a point cloud, a 3D model and a digital surface model) to c:\odm\output. You can pass more options for processing by appending them at the end of the command. To see a list of options, simply issue:

odm args

See odm --help for more options.

Using GCPs

To include a GCP for additional georeferencing accuracy, simply create a .txt file according to the Ground Control Points format specification and place it along with the images.

Processing Node Management

By default CloudODM will randomly choose a default node from the list of publicly available nodes. If you are running your own processing node via NodeODM you can add a node by running the following:

odm node add mynode http://address:port

Then run odm as following:

odm -n mynode c:\path\to\images

If no node is specified, the default node is selected. To see a list of nodes you can run:

odm node -v

For more information run odm node --help.

If you are interested in adding your node to the list of public nodes please open an issue.
